#86 Accelerated Learning, part 2
(no votes)
In this podcast, we bring back the theme of accelerated learning that we started way back in one of our first episodes, now approaching it from a totally new angle and with the new learnings and experiences that we ourselves have learned in the meantime:
- What is learning?
- What takes time in learning is "not getting it" (Marshall Thurber)
- "Phase change," or transformational learning, in contrast to "slow learning"
- The tipping point in learning
- Examples of accelerated learning
- Learning NLP techniques – finding the bigger structure
- Ballroom dancing – exploring the space of mistakes
- Strategy to execution
- What people remember?
- The first thing, the last thing, and any strongly emotional moments in between
- Structuring learning in smaller chunks
- Segmented learning
- Constructing stories
- Examples of learning through stories
- Different kinds of learning
- Academic
- Experiential
- Games – making learning fun
- Closing remarks
- Making games on the fly
- Look for humor
- Learning as new ways to have fun
- "Mischief accomplished!"

#76 Pattern Thinking, part 1
(4 votes)
- What are patterns
- Science: map of the world, theory
- Structure wih a specific rhythm and beat
- Mythology: Frank Herbert’s quote
- Usefulness: patterns are everywhere, which ones we care about?
- Repetition of a structure, sequence
- Patterns in Self
- Personal growth
- Where you are, where you are going, and how to get there
- Patterns in Relationships
- Patterns in large systems
- Business, politics
- Why spotting patterns is important
- Survival
- Usefulness and dangers of patterns
- Saves you CPU cycles
- Learn from prior generations
- Automated thinking, robotizing
- Distinction: who has control – you over pattern, or pattern over you
- Patterns help to survive, but too much pattern kills adaptation, which leads to extinction
- Context of war: make sure you spot your patterns before your opponent does
- Context of personal growth: use your friends / teachers to spot your patterns
- Whose patterns are these? Where did you get them from? Do they work for you?
#12 Neurological Levels
(10 votes)
The Neurological levels were proposed by anthropologist Gregory Bateson (1972, 1979). He defined a hierarchy of abstraction including beliefs, values and identity. He perceived relationships as having a higher abstraction than identity, and therefore influencing lower levels in the hierarchy, such as beliefs and behavior.
In Neuro-linguistic programming, they were developed by Robert Dilts into the Dilts’ Neuro-logical levels (also known as the logical levels of change and the logical levels of thinking) which are useful for assisting with or understanding change from an individual, social or organization point of view. Each level is progressively more psychologically encompassing and impactful. (Wikipedia)

#9 Metaprograms
(17 votes)
Meta-programs in general are programs that create, control or make decisions about programs, such as when and how to run them, preferred and unpreferred programs, and strategic choices of fall-back or alternative programs.
Neuro-linguistic programming (NLP) uses the term specifically to indicate the more general pervasive habitual patterns commonly used by an individual across a wide range of situations. Examples of NLP meta-programs include the preference for overview or detail, the preference for where to place one’s attention during conversation, habitual linguistic patterns and body language, and so on. (Wikipedia)
